There are also header_size_limit (default: 102400 bytes) for the maximum length of a logical header line, and header_address_token_limit (default: 10240 tokens). Excess content is unceremonously dropped because it is misuse of mail protocol (sites that need lots of Bcc header info should consider using a mailing list manager). Note that Sendmail has a default limit of 32kB limit for the entire message header and rejects messages that exceed the limit. Wietse
